I'm trying to build the sources from the svn trunk using VC2008, and I'm running into some problems. First, I have no idea what the configure project is for, and it fails with a manifest related error (the project lacks any .c* files anyway). This causes an avalanche of problems, initiated by TableGen not being able to build.

I had also this problem before. VC++2008 converts the project to new version automatically, so it may not work . Just try with VC++2005, everything will be ok :-) Quang Von: llvmdev-bounces at cs.uiuc.edu [mailto:llvmdev-bounces at cs.uiuc.edu] Im Auftrag von Sherief N. Farouk Gesendet: Donnerstag, 28.
